Support Mrs. Dennis' classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
My students live in an urban area. The majority of our school receives free lunch. The teachers are only given one hundred dollars a year to purchase supplies. This amount barely covers the basics that the children need for school. These children go home everyday hoping to have food on the table and an adult there to take care of them. Some are lucky to have a book or a game at home. For most of them, school is their safe and happy place.
